Sink repair for Beckford Cross homes

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Beckford Cross as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

About our sink repair in Beckford Cross

We match the glaze as well as the colour. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Common call-outs are for chips on a built-in basin and fine cracks across the glaze, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

What affects the price in Beckford Cross

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Beckford Cross. The price reflects:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

If you are in Beckford Cross and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Through cracks that let water out

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Beckford Cross

  • Belfast and butler sinks

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
